You Only Live Twice

Twice is the only way to Live! A disaster in space pushes humankind toward World War III, and only James Bond (Sean Connery) can prevent it in this action-packed movie spectacular. When U.S. and Soviet spaceships are hijacked in Earth's orbit, 007 must race to prevent a nuclear war between the two superpowers. His dangerous mission takes him to Japan, where he must stop the SPECTRE organisation and its diabolical leader, Ernst Stavro Blofeld (played by the great Donald Pleasence), hidden away in massive headquarters in an inactive volcano! The screenplay of You Only Live Twice was written by notable author Roald Dahl, loosely based on Ian Fleming's 1964 novel of the same name.
